Interface Load - funny request!?

Hi,

I've got a node called "bastion" in my network map and the SNMP monitor
plug-in asks every 60s for the interface load from host "fuldasrv". This
is the captured packet:

09:48:15.318386 fuldasrv.1148 > bastion.snmp:
|30|59|02|01|04|06|a0|4cGetRequest(76)|02|04|02|01|02|01|30|3e
|30|0c|06|08system.sysUpTime.0|05|00
|30|0e|06|0ainterfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifInOctets.4|05|00
|30|0e|06|0ainterfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifOutOctets.4|05|00
|30|0e|06|0ainterfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifOperStatus.4|05|00 (ttl 64, id
2234)

Is it correct to ask for four SNMP variables to just determine the
IfLoad value?

Regards

Jan.
